Übergeek 바둑이: I was in Cuba for vacation in 93',stayed at a resort formerly used by Russian millitary.The beaches were beautiful, but their hospitality industry was in its infancy. Apt buildings used bedsheets to shield the units from the balconies, workers were trucked in every morning jammed into openback trucks, lousy food, even lousier coffee, hoookers and cigar sellers jumped out of the bushes as you walked the streets...........the potential was there for a thriving beach vacation industry, not sure how it has come along in the years since.Very friendly people though

Artful Dodger: it shows a bully getting in the face of old people very aggressively.I wouldn't have a prepared statement for that jerk either if he pulled that type of intimidation, clearly his ego is so big he thinks he can push people around as he rushes towards them.Notice the difference in the approach used by the interviewer at the tea bagging, he politely asks questions
Sujet: Re: And that is precisely the problem with liberal thinkers such as yourself
Artful Dodger: I think in a nutshell you have provided a microcosm of why there is so little bipartisan work accomplished in Washington.There is nothing to be gained by working my lil stubby fingers to the bone trying to find a common ground,so why bother
Sujet: Re: sadly many Americans are not willing to invest in themselves.
Übergeek 바둑이: My intended point was, if Iraq is in a surplus situation, the USA should not be spending their money anymore, let them foot the bill, they're not intending to give the US any advantage in oil contracts anyway sc'em
Sujet: Re: sadly many Americans are not willing to invest in themselves.
(V): Meanwhile, you have billions of dollars still being directed at "rebuilding" Iraq.Did you know Iraq showed a 50 billion surplus this year? I guess as the Bush admin stated early on, the cost of the Iraq war will be paid back from their oil profits...........and I have some swampland in Florida for sale
(V): I think it parallels the healthcare debate.You have many of the top earners with an "I'm alright Jack" attitude.Ironically, the USA has rebuilt and provided aid to other countries in the past with the hope that they would in future have the financial ability to become a customer that would buy American products, sadly many Americans are not willing to invest in themselves.
Sujet: they are left with nothing else but complaining that they could lose the right to play with themselves
Artful Dodger: After subsidising the tax cuts for those earning 250 grand +, at a cost of trillions to the deficit. over 90% of Americans may find "playing with themselves" the only affordable option of recreation left.
"Job growth between 2000 and 2008 was slower than it had been in any economic expansion since World War II -– slower than it’s been over the last year. The wages and incomes of middle-class families kept falling while the cost of everything from tuition to health care kept on going up. Folks were forced to put more debt on their credit cards and borrow against homes that many couldn’t afford to buy in the first place. And meanwhile, a failure to pay for two wars and two tax cuts for the wealthy helped turn a record surplus into a record deficit"
Sujet: Re: American church plans will kill soldiers ....
Artful Dodger: Is god vengeful?
A:
Yes God is vengeful, below are a few scriptures that you may wish to confirm this.
Gen. 4:15 (Moses 5:40) whosoever slayeth Cain, v. shall be taken Deut. 32:35 (Heb. 10:30) To me belongeth v. Deut. 32:41 I will render v. to mine enemies Ps. 94:1 God, to whom v. belongeth Ps. 149:7 execute v. upon the heathen Prov. 6:34 he will not spare in the day of v. Isa. 34:8 day of the Lord's v. Isa. 35:4 your God will come with v. Isa. 59:17 he put on the garments of v. Isa. 61:2 To proclaim ... the day of v. of our God Isa. 63:4 day of v. is in mine heart Jer. 11:20 Lord ... let me see thy v. on them Jer. 50:28 declare in Zion the v. of the Lord Jer. 51:6 time of the Lord's v. Micah 5:15 I will execute v. Nahum 1:2 Lord will take v. on his adversaries Luke 21:22 these be the days of v. Rom. 3:5 Is God unrighteous who taketh v. Rom. 12:19 (Morm. 3:15; 8:20) V. is mine: I will repay 2 Thes. 1:8 taking v. on them that know not God Jude 1:7 example, suffering the v. of eternal fire
Bernice: How many members are there in that church? 50? I suggest protestors set up a printing press nearby, and for every Koran burned, print two more.
(V):Actually, you have made a good point.Sponsorship could help defray the costs of war.Imagine missiles with company logos, or strategic undertakings such as " the surge" being brought to you by American Express
